A High Resolution Lunar Gravity Field and Predicted Orbit Behavior

This data set provides global gravity coverage directly for the nearside and indirectly for the farside. The gravity field will be evaluated by comparing resolution of surface fearture with prevoius existing gravity fields such as the field determined ty Bills and Ferrari (1980) and also by prediction of the Apollo 16 subsatellite crash.

Mars Gravity Field From Dual Satellite Observations

Two strategies are examined in this paper to improve the spherical harmonic representations of the Martian gravitational field. Continous observation over a week-long data arc and a 30th degree gravitational field are assumed for analysis.
